Finally, not buying runes is gonna pay off!
I have 3 rune pages, as well as the following: Marks AD, AP, Armour, Magic Pen, Scaling AD Seals AP, AD, Health, Armour Glyphs Scaling MR, Armour Quints AP, AD, 2 Movespeed Quints
This translates to an AD page, an AP page, and a page with weird nonsensical runes that would periodically change, most notably a full armour page minus quints because why not.
I have been sitting on sub-par Rune pages for actual years with the expectation that this system would inevitably be reworked as the last vestige of anything even remotely pay2win in the game. Finally, years and seasons later, my frugal spending will pay off. And, as a bonus, I am going to get a cool new free system in the place of the current one, so instead of punching in which bonus stats I want in the league equivalent of doing your math homework (or, more acurately, copying someone else's math homework) you hopefully get to make actual decisions. At the very worst, the homework just went from 4 pages of copying to 1.
So, anyone else out there who hasn't invested much into the current rune system that is hyped to see it headed out the door? Tell me why you didn't feel the need to buy a half dozen rune pages, or a diverse selection of runes!
